#14 2 Seas Motorsport – Mercedes-AMG GT3: Martin Kodric / Hunter Abbott Pro/Am Intelligent Money British GT Championship – Silverstone 500 Free Practice 2 Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit Northamptonshire England

 

This weekend sees the Intelligent Money British GT Championship make a welcome return to Silverstone and Paul Foster is trackside to catch all the action for Racerviews.

After a successful day of testing on Friday, the teams were back on track today for the qualifying sessions ahead of tomorrow’s Silverstone 500 race.

Silverstone is still following UK Government pandemic guidance and due to this a limited number of spectators are allowed to watch this weekend, but sadly they are confined to a very small area of the circuit. This may also be due to all the building work that is going on around the circuit prior to the sell out crowds for the F1 in three weeks time. Regardless of this they are in for a great weekend of frantic action on track.

Qualifying  

2 Seas Motorsport make a welcome return this weekend to the British GT after their switch from last season’s Mclaren720 s to the Mercedes-AMG GT3. Hunter Abbott and Martin Kodric were fastest in the morning practice session and they managed to repeat this in the two 10-minute qualifying sessions later in the day, thus placing themselves firmly on the front row.

Next to them on the front row is the Barwell Motorsport Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo under the guidance of Adam Balon and Sandy Mitchell. The third sport went to RAM Racing and Ian Loggie and Yelmer Buurman in their Mercedes-AMG GT3 car after the TF Sport Aston Martin was handed a 2-place penalty for an infringement.
